Holá Nandiño,
Actually it's a very interesting word.
Carajo/ caraxo can either be 1. a sailing ship "crow's nest", 2. an animal's male sexual organ, or 3. a tax imposed by arabs on the lands of christian subjects.
I guess that the common theme for all three was that you ended up
xodido...
Best,
: )
